COMMUNITY ISSUE
The number of homeless students in the wake county have been increasing these past years. This problem relates to our community because thousands of wake county students go to school everyday without knowing if they will have a roof over their head this night or not.
I am interested in this issue because I am a wake county student and I can’t imagine what it must feel like being homeless and not having a home to go to at night. Another reason is because i think there is something we can do to help these kids and their families. Everyone should care about this issue because how can we expect a student to do well in school when they don’t even have a safe place to sleep at night or do their homework or even take a shower. There is a lot of ways we can help, we can start fundraisers or sell sweets we can start a contest against other wake county schools to see which school can raise the most money but something as simple as donating your old clothes can help or giving away shirts that don't fit you, you don’t have to be rich to help even small things like these can help someone.
